*** porl: Another option may be to hide the close button until the tab is clicked, ie. click once to select tab and show close button, then click the close button. It should probably hide itself after a specified time as well. Perhaps it should also appear for a short time on any newly focused tabs (eg when closing one tab the next tab selected already has the close button there)
**** yert: I gots me Firefox 2.0 and aside from fixing my spelling, which is cool, among other features, I found that a handy red x is there to try and trick me into closing my tabs. I use the middle button (wheel mouse). Can there also be an option to turn this evil red x off altogether?
** pgan: This can be done by just customizing Firefox 2.0 to make the Close buttons display only on the focused tab. Use the browser.tabs.tabClipWidth and browser.tabs.tabMinWidth properties. I agree that this is how it should be by default.
* Overflow bucket
* The history system needs to be made more compatible with tabbed browsing. In particular, we should adopt a branched history system (that branches every time the user opens a new tab/window) where the user can always go back unless he/she has reached the homepage.
